McDonnell Douglas F-15A (Komatsu Special Marking 2017)

98.7k WHNineTripleOne  2.9 years ago

A special version of F-15A with Komatsu Special Marking 2017 Skin. Commemorative F-15J livery intended for Komatsu Air Show in 2017.

I think this is the only plane on my JASDF Skin Pack without glass canopy.

Countermeasures.

Group3 - Flaps down (auto-retract with landing gear)
Group4 - Airbrake
Group5 - jettison tanks
Group8 - Master arm, disable/enable AN/APG-63 radar

•Due to a problem with front air intake, i add the final version link : here

Trivia:

The JASDF never actually flew the F-15A. They only flew the F-15J variants of the aircraft.
